Sunday's race saw us return to the top of the valley for race start. It was a great way to tag on to the end of Doug Keith's surprise birthday celebration. The course was challenging, with Lindsay Gauld adding another technical downhill section. We welcomed national team member Neil Grover back for his second Manitoba Race, after a World Cup Season that includes one more race and then Worlds in Ste. Anne, Quebec.
